Churches plan jc

For years, the old Brown Elementary School in
East Winston has been a place to nurture minds and
spirits -- a tradition that will continue when The
Shilohian-St. Peters Corp. Family Care Center officially
reopens the school next month as a day-care
facility for children and senior citizens.
The facility is the brainchild of two churches,
Shiloh Baptist and St. Peter's Church of God
Apostolic. And because it involves two churches of
different denominations, the joint venture is unique
to the Winston-Salem area.
It will have a nursery with a capacity for 105
children age three through five; and 35 additional
children will be admitted at a later date, says Dr.
Manderline Scales, president of the corporation.
The nursery will also provide two snacks and one
hot meal; breakfast will be available if necessary.
"Quality education for these children will
definitely be a criteria," says Scales. "The program
will be regulated by the state of North Carolina.
. When our children leave this facility, we want them
to be well prepared to enter first grade."
Another facility will take care of senior citizens.
"It's something we never had before," says Velma
Hopkins, the facility supervisor. "We will have
daily accomodations for senior citizens from 6 a.m.
to 6 p.m. and there will be no age limit.
"This will keep older people from going to nursing
homes," Hopkins says. "Sometimes children
take care of their parents and they might want to
take a vacation. This facility will also provide over
through Sunday, Dec. 2. The host pastor will be E

night relief care from one to four weeks for those
occasions."
It all began when the two churches expressed an
interest in the school to the city-county school J
board. Brown Elementary is located directly across f
from both churches and is a convenient site for both
congregations, Scales says.
"The idea was submitted to the joint board of
trustees and deacons," says Dr. J. Ray Butler,
pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church. "A consultant was
contacted and assisted in the formulation of the
corporation. Both church groups met constantly
until the joint venture became apparent."
The Shilohian-St. Peter's Corp. has been incor"This

porated by the state and will be a legal entity '
separate from both churches.
The new corporation's board of directors is composed
of six members from St. Peter's Church of
God Apostolic and seven members from Shiloh 1
Baptist Church. Bishop R.K. Hash, pastor of St.
Peter's Church, and Dr. J. Ray Butler will be of- i
ficials on the board. I
"Each congregation has been very cooperative
and has effectively worked together to bring this t
service to the community," Scales says. "We have 1
had two receptions and the hostesses were the 1
members of the Usher Board of St. Peter's and the i
Women's Progressive Auxiliary of Shiloh. Over 300 1

Although the corporation has not sought community
donations at this point, it has applied for
government assistance.
"This program will draw the community
